ABC's Top Line interviewed N.Y. 1 Republican Randy Altschuler, who's locked in one of the more intense recount battles nationally against Democratic Rep. Tim Bishop, earlier today, and asked his take on the float of Alec Baldwin running against him in 2012 (if he wins, of course):

"It’s Alec Baldwin — I actually like his TV show. But apparently, and who knows if it’s true or not, sources close to him are saying if I am victorious, he's going to run against me in 2012,” Altschuler told us on ABC’s “Top Line” today.

Altschuler said he agrees that Baldwin’s character on “30 Rock,” Jack Donaghy, would be much more likely to run in the Republican primary than as a Democrat.

“One could only imagine, but I don't want to get ahead of myself. We still go to finish this. Knock on wood, we'll have a successful outcome, but still a lot of ways to go here,” Altschuler said.
